You've changed your clocks, but have you checked your smoke and CO alarms? The manufacturing date is on the back. #SmokeAlarms should be replaced after 10 years, and #CarbonMonoxide alarms should be replaced after 5-10 years depending on the make/model: mass.gov/news/spring-in…

Serious question…did you test and inspect your smoke alarms last night while changing your clocks for DST? ⏰ If not…why not?! Take a few minutes today to test all of the smoke and CO alarms in your home. If you find any that are broken or expired replace today.

Rain, snow, and ice are impacting several regions through this evening. Tonight's evening commute may be hazardous in several regions, so use caution and remember: ❄️ Ice and snow, take it slow! 🚫 Don't crowd the plow! 🚗 Keep more distance between you & other cars.

Leaving lighters within reach of children is a recipe for disaster. Even "child-resistant" lighters aren't foolproof—curious kids can figure them out in seconds. Keep lighters out of sight and out of reach, locked away in a drawer or cabinet. @ONeducation
